Dark Thoughts - Bubble's Gonna Burst

 


   First up, apologies. I've been a bit slack posting updates on here the last week or two. No real reason, just apathy and football. But I've a good one for you today. 

  Hopefully you remember me posting several songs by Philadelphia trio Dark Thoughts a few years back and pretty much creaming my jeans with my enthusiasm for each of them. I'll post links to all 4 songs that I featured as they're that good : 


  The band released 3 killer albums and a single between 2016-2019 and you can find them here :  https://dark-thoughts.bandcamp.com/

  The last 5 years have been quiet, though the band are still touring and I've heard occasional rumours of new material but it's been a long wait. And then today I stumbled upon a new song. A teaser for a new album? Let's hope so. 

  It's one of a fine collection of tracks on an international benefit compilation album titled No Occupation: Another Benefit for Mutual Aid in Gaza. It's a follow up to a compilation that I posted a song from back in February :                                                https://justsomepunksongs.blogspot.com/2024/02/the-dissidents-brother-did-you-weep.html

  It's available on cassette and digital download, a few of the other bands featured include Alien Nosejob, Soup Activists, A Culture Of Killing & Interrobang! and "all proceeds minus bandcamp/paypal fees benefit Gaza Soup Kitchen, which is dedicated to getting food to people who are starving due to the actions of the Israeli government, a violation of international law and basic human decency, materially supported by many of our governments."

  You can find it here : 

   From Dark Thoughts, this is Bubble's Gonna Burst...
